The three words 'person with a heart' inadvertently touched the softest place in Li Yuanchang's heart, and Li Chengqian's name appeared in his mind.

Damn, how did you forget this guy? Li Yuanchang's scalp began to tingle, and when he thought of Li Chengqian, his heart couldn't help but tighten secretly.

Li Yuanchang was arrogant, although the goddess of luck didn't take much care of him, but the goddess of wisdom did not abandon him, and the grudge between Li Chengqian and him disappeared because he left the Tang Dynasty, not to mention this kind of thing now, even five years ago, Li Yuanchang would not believe it.

Now he just doesn't know where Li Chengqian will attack him, and as a prince who has lost power, he must always be vigilant and not leave any leverage for Li Chengqian.

Thinking of this, Li Yuanchang cast a grateful glance at the Khotanese envoy: "Khotanese envoy, I don't know where you want to set up your first stop?" The implication is that there is also a plan to travel.

"Your Highness, the foreign minister wants to invite you to my Khotan party, I don't know what His Highness thinks?" The envoy of Khotan glanced at the food on the table with disdain, and then said: "This Gao Chang has done a little too much to snub His Highness so much. ”

This was instigation, Li Yuanchang knew it, but he still couldn't suppress his resentment.

Li Yuanchang is a very sensitive person, thinking that he is a prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he has been reduced to the point where there are only four maids around him and more than ten guards, this kind of gap is unacceptable to him no matter what.

All the encounters in Gaochang made his sensitive nerves constantly stimulated, and based on the mentality of anger, the anger in his heart became more and more victorious, but because there was no one around, he couldn't do it.

"When does the Khotanese envoy plan to leave?" Li Yuanchang forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and tried his best to be calm, although he had already seen his embarrassment by the Khotanese man in front of him, he still tried to maintain the only bit of dignity.

"Everything is subject to His Highness's arrangement, and when His Highness wants to leave, just send someone to inform him." The Khotanese envoy bowed slightly and said apologetically.

If something is abnormal, it must be a demon!

To be so polite to a prince who has lost power, no matter in any respect, the Khotanese envoy's approach is a bit excessive.

But Li Yuanchang has no choice now, and after Li Chengqian arranged him to the Western Regions, there was no follow-up action, which made him feel like walking on thin ice, so even if Khotan had any conspiracy, he could only go up hard, and he didn't want to be a fish on the chopping board, so he had to go up.

So three days later, Li Yuanchang followed the Khotanese envoy on a journey to Khotan in the grand farewell ceremony held by Ju Zhisheng.

At the same time, a caravan traveling from Chang'an was also stepping out of Yumen Pass in the morning light and slowly moving towards the depths of the desert.

On the other hand, the 15,000 horse thieves who had been stationed on the edge of Qinghai Lake were also replaced by the Tang Dynasty army, which they were very familiar with, and the sound of people shouting horses and tearing horses could also be faintly heard in the city.

"Xue Rengui, do you really plan to let Baolin return to the team this time? Aren't you afraid that kid will spoil his plan on the spur of the moment? Wang Xuance sat in Xue Rengui's big tent, wearing a silk gown and still sweating.

But now he can't take care of these things, Yu Chi Baolin is about to set off to enter the Western Regions again, for this fool, Wang Xuance is not at ease to let him carry out such a huge plan alone.

"He's only in charge of fighting, and he doesn't have a plan to destroy him at all." Xue Rengui was still dressed in a military uniform, although his already hot face was covered with sweat.

As the commander of an army, it is his duty to set an example, especially when Xue Rengui has just taken over Zuo Wuwei, he has no qualifications and no military exploits, and he must play an exemplary role, otherwise he will not be able to manage a group of arrogant generals who follow Qin Qiong.

"That's what I'm worried about, don't you know Baolin's temperament? Even he can forget about him when he fights, do you really rest assured that he will be alone? Wang Xuance was a little anxious, and he was very dissatisfied with Xue Rengui's tepid attitude.

However, Xue Rengui didn't seem to feel Wang Xuance's eagerness, and said slowly: "It's okay, Baolin is also the eldest son of General Wei Chi anyway, and the doorway on the battlefield is clear." In the past, he didn't want to die in a war because he was only responsible for the local battlefield, but now he is in charge of the overall situation, and if you just hold a knife to his neck, he will not be so impulsive anymore. ”

In the final analysis, Wang Xuance is not a member of the military, and playing with conspiracy and calculations is his strength, but when it comes to leading troops to fight, he is still a little worse, and he can't understand what kind of impact the fierce general of '10,000 enemies' will have on the battle situation once he bursts out with a powerful momentum.

Therefore, Xue Rengui can only use metaphors such as Jiangmen Huzi to appease Wang Xuance's heart.

And Wang Xuance is only thinking about the Western Regions now, but he hasn't thought about Tubo behind him, like all the courtiers, he also thinks that the Tubo army on Jishi Mountain is more of a show, and will not really attack the Tang army.

But Xue Rengui didn't think so, in his opinion, all the actions of Tubo were by no means as simple as threats, if one didn't pay attention, maybe these barbarians would really be killed from Jishi Mountain.

It was based on this that Xue Rengui did not lead his troops into the Western Regions again, and he had to stay in Tuyuhun to guard against the rising state of Tubo.

Because of Li Chengqian's various operations, the Western Regions are no longer the Western Regions in history, and if nothing else, the Western Regions will only become more chaotic as time goes by, and war may break out from time to time.

If you don't want the army that has penetrated deep into the Western Regions to become rootless trees, then the best way is to block the Tubo people on the plateau so that they can't get down.

These are some judgments made by Xue Rengui based on the current situation in the Western Regions, there is no theoretical basis, more of a feeling, he is a general, and he can't talk about things with feelings, so he can only suppress things with power.

If Wang Xuance doesn't understand, then he doesn't understand, military affairs don't need him to understand, just obey.

"Brothers, are you ready?" Unlike Wang Xuance's worries, Wei Chi Baolin was still full of confidence in leading an army alone.

I've never eaten pork and seen a pig run, can't you remember how the old man wielded it, and can't you even tell you how to command? Anyway, the old lieutenant didn't brag at home about how good he was at the beginning, and it was a big deal to do it. Wei Chi Baolin didn't believe it, the old man could kill a bloody way among the ten thousand armies, but he couldn't!
